What's a blarney stone and whats the big deal about those things?

I heard if you find one it increases sexual potency. Another person said it also makes you stronger. What the heck are they and what do they have to do with "special green sauce"?

The Blarney stone is supposed to give you the gift of eloquency. So I suppose if you are a smooth talker, you will be sexually more successful ..... I have no idea what's meant by the special green sauce, but I do hope it's organic. And vegetable in origin.

Incidentally, the Blarney stone is in Blarney Castle, which is in County Cork, not anywhere near Dublin.

Its a trap designed to relieve American tourists of their money ;o)

The blarney stone is a particular stone on the Blarney Castle, there is some story in which something happened and the ruler of the castle yelled "Blarney!'. I don't really remember the story, but all in all, the Blarney Stone is supposed to grant you the gift of eloquence

THE Blarney stone (singular) is a stone in Blarney. Ha!
Anyways its just a tourist attraction really. It gives you the gift of the gab/ eloquence supposedly!
I kissed it when i was there last, haven't found it increased my 'sexual potency' though!!! Ha!
Dont have a clue what the green sauce thing is though! :-D

I believe that is said that if you kiss the said blarney Stone you can spin unlikely yarns which makes you popular and likeable, unfortunately I never had the chance, so don't have first hand information.

Like you get Kidney stones in your kidney, you get blarney stones in your Blarney ... kiss it if you can.
